Definitions

  • the present invention refers to the use of short chain alk-2-enenitriles as perfuming ingredients and to flavour and fragrance compositions comprising them.
  • the present invention refers in one of its aspects to the use as fragrance or flavour ingredient of a compound of formula (I) wherein R is selected from linear, branched C 3-4 alkyl and C 3-4 cycloalkyl, such as propyl, prop-2-yl, butyl, 1-methylprop-1-yl, 2-methylprop-1-yl and cyclopropyl; and the double bond is in E or Z configuration; or a mixture thereof.
  • R is selected from linear, branched C 3-4 alkyl and C 3-4 cycloalkyl, such as propyl, prop-2-yl, butyl, 1-methylprop-1-yl, 2-methylprop-1-yl and cyclopropyl; and the double bond is in E or Z configuration; or a mixture thereof.
  • the odour threshold of the (Z)-isomer compared to its corresponding (E)-isomer is higher. Accordingly, the use of the pure (E)-isomer is preferred. However, a mixture of both isomers, preferably enriched in the (E)-isomer, which is readily available synthetically, can also be used.
  • the term "enriched" is used herein to describe the compounds of the present invention having an isomeric purity greater than 1:1 in favour of the (E)-isomer. Particularly preferred are compounds having an isomeric purity of 1.5:1 (E:Z), more preferably 2:1 (E:Z) or 3:1 (E:Z), and most preferably 5:1 (E:Z) or greater.
  • the compounds according to the present invention may contain one stereocenter, and as such exist as mixtures of stereoisomers. They can be used as stereoisomeric mixtures, or may be resolved in diastereomerically and/or enantiomerically pure form. Resolving stereoisomers adds to the complexity of manufacture and purification of these compounds, and so it is preferred to use the compounds as mixtures of their stereoisomers simply for economic reasons. However, if it is desired to prepare individual stereoisomers, this may be achieved according to methodology known in the art, e. g. preparative HPLC and GC or by stereoselective syntheses.
  • flavour or fragrance ingredient of compounds of formula (I) selected from the list consisting of hex-2-enenitrile, hept-2-enenitrile, 4-methylhex-2-enenitrile, 5-methylhex-2-enenitrile, 4-methylpent-2-enenitrile and 3-cyclopropylacrylonitrile, preferably enriched in favour of its (E)-isomer.
  • the compounds of formula (I) may be used alone, as mixtures thereof, or in combination with a base material.
  • the "base material” includes all known odorant molecules selected from the extensive range of natural products and synthetic molecules currently available, such as essential oils, alcohols, aldehydes and ketones, ethers and acetals, esters and lactones, macrocycles and heterocycles, and/or in admixture with one or more ingredients or excipients conventionally used in conjunction with odorants in fragrance compositions, for example, carrier materials, and other auxiliary agents commonly used in the art, e.g. solvents such as dipropylene glycol (DPG), isopropyl myristate (IPM), and thriethyl citrate (TEC).
  • DPG dipropylene glycol
  • IPM isopropyl myristate
  • TEC thriethyl citrate
  • the compounds according to formula (I) may be used in a broad range of fragrance applications, e.g. in any field of fine and functional perfumery, such as perfumes, household products, laundry products, body care products and cosmetics.
  • the compounds can be employed in widely varying amounts, depending upon the specific application and on the nature and quantity of other odorant ingredients.
  • the proportion is typically from 0.001 to 20 weight percent of the application.
  • compounds of the present invention may be employed in a fabric softener in an amount of from 0.001 to 0.05 weight percent.
  • compounds of the present invention may be used in fine perfumery in amounts of from 0.1 to 20 weight percent, more preferably between 0.1 and 5 weight percent.
  • these values are given only by way of example, since the experienced perfumer may also achieve effects or may create novel accords with lower or higher concentrations.
  • the compounds as described hereinabove may be employed into the fragrance application simply by directly mixing the fragrance composition with the fragrance application, or they may, in an earlier step, be entrapped with an entrapment material, for example, polymers, capsules, microcapsules and nanocapsules, liposomes, film formers, absorbents such as carbon or zeolites, cyclic oligosaccharides and mixtures thereof, or they may be chemically bonded to substrates, which are adapted to release the fragrance molecule upon application of an external stimulus such as light, enzyme, or the like, and then mixed with the application.
  • an entrapment material for example, polymers, capsules, microcapsules and nanocapsules, liposomes, film formers, absorbents such as carbon or zeolites, cyclic oligosaccharides and mixtures thereof, or they may be chemically bonded to substrates, which are adapted to release the fragrance molecule upon application of an external stimulus such as light, enzyme, or the like, and then mixed with
  • the invention additionally provides a method of manufacturing a fragrance application, comprising the incorporation of a compound of the present invention, as a fragrance ingredient, either by directly admixing the compound to the application or by admixing a fragrance composition comprising a compound of formula (I), which may then be mixed to a fragrance application, using conventional techniques and methods.
  • fragment application means any product, such as fine perfumery, e.g. perfume and eau de toilette; household products, e.g. detergent for dishwasher, surface cleaner; laundry products, e.g. softener, bleach, detergent; body care products, e.g. shampoo, shower gel; and cosmetics, e.g. deodorant, vanishing creme, comprising an odorant.
  • perfumery e.g. perfume and eau de toilette
  • household products e.g. detergent for dishwasher, surface cleaner
  • laundry products e.g. softener, bleach, detergent
  • body care products e.g. shampoo, shower gel
  • cosmetics e.g. deodorant, vanishing creme
  • the ⁇ , ⁇ -unsaturated nitriles according to formula (I) may be conveniently prepared by Wittig reaction of saturated aldehydes with (triphenylphosphoranilydene)acetonitrile under conditions known to the skilled person.
  • the main fraction (1.59 g) was then microdistilled in the presence of 1.6 g paraffin (15 mbar, oil bath temperature: 120°C) giving a 63:37 mixture of (E/Z)-hex-2-enenitrile (0.6 g, 38%) having a boiling point of 79 °C at 15 mbar.
  • Odour description green, fruity, citrus, fatty.
  • Odour description green, slightly cucumber, slightly fruity, slightly fatty-oily.
  • Odour description green-fruity, fatty (isovalerianic).
  • Odour description green, apple, fruity, slightly fatty.
  • Example 7 A fragrance composition having a green apple accord
